Difficulty: Easy

Prep time: 15 minutes

Cook time: 15 minutes

Servings: 15

Ingredients

  • 2 cups all purpose flour
  • 1/4 cup packed light brown sugar
  • 2 tablespoons baking powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1/2 cup plus 1 teaspoon creamy peanut butter
  • 1 cup milk
  • 1 lightly beaten egg
  • 1 stick at room temperature, plus 3 tablespoons melted butter
  • 1/4 cup thick, such as seedless raspberry jam
  • 1/3 cup chopped honey-roasted peanuts
  • 5 tablespoons your favorite type fruit preserves

Directions

Preheat the oven to 350 °F. Spray a 12-cup muffin tin with cooking spray.

In a food processor, combine the flour, sugar, baking powder and salt. Pulse in all of the peanut butter until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs. Add the milk, egg, and 3 tablespoons melted butter and pulse until combined.

Distribute half of the batter equally among the muffin cups. Drop a teaspoon of jam into each cup and cover with the remaining batter. Top with the chopped peanuts. Bake until the muffins are light golden, 15 to 20 minutes. Transfer them to a wire rack to cool. Serve warm or allow to cool completely. Spread compound butter on top. Store in an airtight container. The muffins will keep for 1 to 2 days.

Compound Butter:

Combine 1 stick room temperature butter with preserves and chill until set.

This tasted amazing with double the sugar and just a little bit more peanut butter!! Also I changed the amount of baking powder to 2 teaspoons and it turned out great!

Doubled the recipe and found the batter like a bread dough. It climbed the beaters of my mix master (I don't have a food processor). Added more milk and it didn't help much. Scooped the dough/batter into muffin papers, added jam and then scooped batter onto the jam. Also I added 1/4c coconut because we love coconut in our muffins. Baked them 18 min. and they were doughy still - should bake for at least 20 min.; probably could stay in the oven for more like 25 min. Tasty and good - a hit with my kids.
